Employee nightmare of the week: Flame-broiled polyester
After a Burger King employee was told last week that he was unfit to wear the chain’s uniform, he returned it to them—in cinder form. The 24-year-old man, identified in local media reports as Timothy Ortiz, walked out of the southern Florida restaurant and flame-broiled his shirt and hat.
Ortiz walked away from the fire he started before the clothing was well done, and authorities failed to arrive in time to nab him for the uniform theft. They found the flamer at home, where he had to be stun-gunned because of his aggressive behavior.
